Charlie said:This potato soup is strangely addicting.
Charlie said:Yeh I actually havent had red meat in 4 days hoping it would help digestion, oh, and also iron of course. I think this is a record for me for not eating meat. Trying to get away from red meat and move over to stuff like this soup. Also, want to try the chicken foot broth, but I remember Ray Peat mentioning something about the bleach they use to clean it. But alas, it cannot all be perfect I guess.
Charlie said:That seems like a pretty good juicer. On Amazon the Brevilles get good reviews.
Haagendazendiane said:Jyb, this is very interesting about the RPPS. I also have insomnia quite frequently. Do you eat the soup for dinner or do you consume it right before bed? Do you still do all the other things with the soup?
jyb said:The juice you get from the juicer still has starch, but one can leave it separate further in the fridge in a large container for an hour or more. At that point, there is a thin layer of starch floating at the top, and a large heavy layer at the bottom. One can scoop out the upper layer for trash. Then for each meal, scoop out some liquid while leaving the starch at the bottom untouched.

I do a batch once a week for 3 consecutive days - I think 15-20 big potatoes are enough for 3 bowls. Yes I do boil the juice. I'm not sure how long it can preserved in the fridge (uncooked) - all I know is that 3 days is fine. The juice you get from the juicer still has starch, but one can leave it separate further in the fridge in a large container for an hour or more. At that point, there is a thin layer of starch floating at the top, and a large heavy layer at the bottom. One can scoop out the upper layer for trash. Then for each meal, scoop out some liquid while leaving the starch at the bottom untouched. There will still be starch, which will concentrate at the top for a few minutes during the cooking (but not a solid pancake like if you cooked the juice as soon as it was extracted from the juicer), at that point if you stir a bit (or remove it) it will mix and the result is a liquid.
